22nd May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
8st 11lb |
Back to winning ways with a front-running C&D success 23 days ago (visored first time); up 2lb but should give it another good go. |
5/1 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Two soft-ground turf wins, including one for this yard, but he acts on better ground and made the most of a good draw when close third of 15 at Nottingham (8.5f, good; Token Love seventh) in cheekpieces three weeks ago; that is just about the best recent form on offer and he's nicely berthed again; visor goes on and he's respected. |
5/2 |
|
3rd 10 (1) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
First win was on AW but last two have come on turf (8.3f/1m2f, soft); had some close calls on Tapeta during the winter and he was a creditable fourth in big field at Doncaster (1m2f, good to soft) 11 days ago; could be in the mix again but he wouldn't want the ground to dry out. |

7th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has an inconsistent profile but both wins have been off higher marks so cannot be discounted. |
5/1 |
|
5th 2 (9) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has a patchy profile but he won at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in March and was a strong-finishing second at Pontefract (1m, good) last Wednesday; on same mark here and he's a key player on this step back up in trip. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 1 (9) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Made all on good to firm at Newbury (1m; first-time cheekpieces, kept since) in July and doubled his tally when picking up AW handicap (1m2f) in March; raced freely when underwhelming on last two starts but drops in grade and has already dipped below his last winning mark. |

14th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Two wins last season, the first a dead-heat over C&D in July (good to firm); rather patchy form this season, best run when third at Pontefract in April (1m, good); a possible on second run back after wind op. |
14/1 |
|
5th 6 (8) |
29th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 5y Class 5 |
10st 5lb |
Had wind surgery (his third) since last run; form at Pontefract features a success last August (off 2lb higher; one of three wins under Charli Parker) and best effort this season; record of 0-19 when racing above Class 6 is the negative. |
10/1 |
|
8th 8 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 53y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
A dual 1m2f scorer in 2025; back to form when third of nine in 1m Pontefract handicap ten days ago so ought to be thereabouts eased 1lb. |

17th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |
9st 13lb |
0-9; far from his only weak finish when fading back past Revich over 8.5f here in April, and sold out of the Greenall/Guerriero yard for 4,000gns following a similar effort on only run since; last home on sole 1m2f start. |
6/1 |
|
4th 6 (10) |
29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Yet to score but he went close at Wolverhampton (9.5f, AW) in December and was only beaten 3l despite finishing in midfield at Nottingham (8.5f, good; Powerful Response third) on his return three weeks ago; shaped well that day (hit the front before fading) and he's a candidate to build on that despite being drawn widest. |
6/1 |
|
7th 9 (5) |
8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 6 |
9st 5lb |
Inconsistent seven-race maiden; raised his game with a close second in Wolverhampton handicap (9.4f) in December, but he faded on his return visit four weeks later; still has potential but he needs to step up again after 99 days off. |

1lb out of the weights and this longstanding maiden hasn't been remotely threatening this season. |
50/1 |
|
6th 6 (6) |
27th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 23y Class 6 |
8st 10lb |
25-race maiden who was well held here over 8.5f (good to soft) 23 days ago; steps back up in trip and others are preferred. |
40/1 |
|
10th 15 (15) |
4th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
8st 9lb |
24-race maiden who has been tried at all manner of different trips and was never involved when dropped back to 1m at Pontefract (good; 150-1) last week; opposable. |

1st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Won a 7f handicap at Redcar (good to firm) last summer off 2lb lower; not at her best over 1m this year; cheekpieces discarded today. |
16/1 |
|
7th 2 (2) |
8th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 173y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Record is only 1-13 and her form has dipped a touch in two outings this term; normally a consistent sort otherwise and, as per many times, has frame possibilities if back on song. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 (13) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Scored over 7f here last June and made the frame on her other five outings last season; made low-key reappearance last month but remains unexposed over 1m and has possibilities if boosted by new cheekpieces. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 6 |
9st 3lb |
Arrives in decent nick without winning, fourth of nine in 1m handicap at Ripon 13 days ago; it's now 20 runs since his last victory however. |
13/2 |
|
4th 9 (4) |
6th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
8st 4lb |
In reasonably good form having made the frame in last three starts; however, still has a better strike-rate on Newcastle AW than on turf and this is a step back up in grade; 2lb out of weights. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 13 (13) |
20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 7f 219y Class 6 |
9st 0lb |
Back in better form with fourth-place finishes the last twice; still has a better strike-rate on Newcastle AW than on turf but he's on an attractive mark and Conor Whiteley takes off a bonus 7lb; shortlisted. |

16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 6y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Prominent racer who won classified events at Wolverhampton (9.4f) and Lingfield (1m2f) in January but he's found things tough back in handicaps in his last three runs; has something to prove again and his sole turf win was in May 2023. |
25/1 |

5th 2 (2) |
5th May 2026 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Won twice in January, including over 9.4f here, and he is back to a winning mark after three disappointing runs this spring; not a solid option. |

29th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Won on turf as a 2yo for Clive Cox; dual AW winner (1m/7f) for this yard in January but poor last time when the race reportedly came too soon; has been freshened up and might bounce back. |
5/1 |
|
7th 1 (6) |
4th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner in January, when 12lb lower; followed up at Wolverhampton (7f, Tapeta); went close from this mark when fourth back there (8.5f) on his penultimate start; respectable second at Lingfield latest but if back in the form of that penultimate effort, he'd have strong claims. |
6/1 |
|
2nd 1 (2) |
28th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Two Tapeta wins in January, over 1m and 7f, and better form when a close fourth (off this mark) at Wolverhampton 11 days ago (8.6f); the second and third there have both won since and he is a solid contender back down into a Class 6. |
